Party, Party, Party!

A day of parties, the first was at the orphanage. A mobile phone company called AMC came to give out gifts to the kids, so the kids put on a little show. They sang a few songs and the director and a few other people said a few things, then two girls dressed in AMC uniforms handed out shopping bags to each of the kids. They were filled with cloths, winter coats and shoes. Mariada gave hers to her two best friends Marinela and Jesica.

Then off to a restaurant we went were HFTW was throwing a Christmas party for the entire orphanage. They had a DJ playing Albanian music, a huge lunch and a gift for every child. It was a great party, the kids and staff where out dancing up a storm! It went on for hours.

Now we are home relaxing and plan to stay in for the night for diner, and then watch a Christmas movie.

Hope everyone has a safe and happy Christmas Eve!

Another friend, very sweet girl.

BFF, Jesica was trying to explain what good friends they are and I was saying Best Friends, and she took a few seconds to find the word, then says no best friend we are sisters :)

The other BFF! Marinela, love this little sweetie!
